ADHD stems from bipolar parent? | ADHD Information

My son's dr who diagnosed him yesterday said from what i was telling her about my son's dad that she thinks he (dad) is bipolar and that this could certainly go hand in hand with the fact that jacob has adhd.

have you ever heard of this?

Although ADHD can be hereditary it can also come from nowhere. It is possible though I can see it being true as I am bipolar and so is my son, he also has ADHD.    It is quite possible. I am bipolar and my son adhd. Of course they
wanted to check him for bipolar symptoms as well, but just adhd.
